Re: Convergence day 2025?
I'm not even opposed to directed BeGolds of the ones we got last year to finish them. Any we have Immortalized, just pick one of the others.
I seem to recall there were some issues a couple of weeks of the Event?
But, more New Crew would be nice. Always.
Maybe Quipment that the older Convergence Crew could use specifically to raise their Stats could be introduced, as well. I actually use the Legendary Bynars sometimes in Continuum Missions now. Their +1000/+950 Quipment gets them into.o useful range. I usually use the +500 Quipment for both Skills, then add the+450 for one Skill in the last Slot. They are doing some lifting this week in that last Mission. They can cover both Eng & Sci Nodes.
Quipment that could do the same for the older Convergence Crew would be nice.

Spock is wearing what looks like it could be a Dress Uniform. Either that or something similar to the "Command Wrap". But, was that ever used by anyone other than a Captain?
Carol Freeman should probably be added, as well. She's in a variation of the White Dress Uniform Jacket. And uniforms do sometimes vary a little, even in series set in the same time frame.
After googling actual images of the TOS mirror mirror episode, I would say Mirror Spock is indeed in a dress uniform. Everyone else was wearing the standard tunic (except for Kirk's unique gold wrap). It looks to be a reuse of prime McCoy's dress uniform with the thin gold edging, and he has the collar open. (Prime Spock's dress uniform had the thicker gold).

Re: Cheating… what’s TP doing about it?
Congrats on somehow making the game worse. Repeatedly being booted from the game because of "failed" checks (that were nearly impossible to line up exactly), along with connection issues, made the event frustrating and unplayable at times.
For bonus points, having my skirmish setup cleared when I came back into the game after being booted, and having to waste time to reset it was extra awesome 🙄
After allowing rampant cheating to happen for too long, you've now overcorrected and swung it in the opposite direction. Punishing players who weren't cheating, by making extremely precise checks that were unfair, was not the answer.
Bravo 👏🏼
Agreed. I failed it a few times on my phone. It needs to be less sensitive, but I realize it’s a process and tweaks will be necessary. There was quite a long discussion on Discord with some good ideas. Even a recommendation to have the Ktarian Headset be the bot check as it would random every time. 😆
Re: I cannot pass the new cheat check. (But I pass in the restart)
Did the Macros actually figure out how to recognize Crew? Was the change necessary to combat that, or for "optics"?!?!?
Re: I cannot pass the new cheat check. (But I pass in the restart)
Same. This is absolutely ridiculous.
Checks and balances that don't function properly are useless.

What set up are they using? How many times did they get the bonus Event Points after a Battle?
Details matter.
With the issues the last part of the Event, FIVE puzzles {three of which required two tries}, and the game flat up crashing and needing to restart, I still did almost forty runs in the last forty minutes, using my normal Skirmish set up. The Arty with one Event Crew and three Sledgehammers.
Most actual Battles take a couple of seconds with the speed up option. So, an average of 55 seconds a Run does not seem impossible.

What is t his ? I cannot pass the new check . You proved because I can not place the object perfectly, I am not human. I say the opposite you just proved I am human.
EFIT: What the heck? I get back in the game. It checks me again. I do not perfectly complete the puzzle. But this time I pass. What is going on. I should have passed the first two failures. I was closer
Edit2: my 3rd account just had the check pop up. Again I was not as close as my first two failures, and I passed. Was this just implemented today? And they fixed it today?

However, I do think the point about the ship apparently having no one on the bridge or even on call for bridge duty for ... what, two weeks? ... is one that I would appreciate @STT Community weighing in on. What would have happened if there had been a game breaking bug during that time?
I know the first line Support is outsourced and I assume not all on holiday themselves - would they have been able to get hold of anyone at TP/WRG if they had to escalate a problem? (If so, perhaps those of us with cheating concerns should have been flooding them with tickets about it ...)
At this point, I would be happy to get answers to some of those questions.
I don't think legal or privacy considerations prevents them from responding at all, yet they still haven't done so.
If there had been a game breaking bug, they probably would have only noticed well after the fact. Given some sorrytons and thought that was sufficient.
I swear this company can't get out of their own way, and just do the bare minimum sometimes. Communication really isn't that hard.
Shan is gone because of the ego of one person. If you don’t know who to blame, you weren’t around for the “buy again” calamity.
One persons ego purged a significant amount of revenue from this game. And the community has never been the same.
Are you Princess Uhura?
